Summary/Abstract: Sustainable building development involves the use of environmentally friendly materials to reduce carbon footprint, energy consumption and costs. This paper presents natural, customary and innovative materials used in construction. Breathe brick used to filter air from existing pollutants into the atmosphere, Ferrock concrete absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, nanoparticle thermal insulating materials and metamaterials used in acoustic insulation are future solutions for sustainable development.
